Answer:

  • Land development creates impervious surfaces through construction of roads, parking lots, and other structures. Impervious surfaces:
  • Contribute to nonpoint source water pollution by limiting the capacity of soils to filter runoff.
  • Affect peak flow and water volume, which heighten erosion potential and affect habitat and water quality.
  • Increase storm water runoff, which can deliver more pollutants to water bodies that residents may rely on for drinking and recreation.1 Storm runoff from urban and suburban areas contains dirt, oils from road surfaces, nutrients from fertilizers, and various toxic compounds.
  • Affect ground water aquifer recharge.

What restrictions did the Coercive Acts place on the Massachusetts colonists after the Boston Tea Party?
viktelen [127]

Answer:

D. They closed the Boston Harbor and limited (but did not withdraw) the colony's right to govern itself

Explanation:

On May 10, 1773, the British Parliament passed the <u>Tea Act</u>. This act allowed British companies to ship tea to the colonies without duties, but the colonists still had to pay a tax on tea.

They were outraged at this display of "taxation without representation", so they tried to boycott the tea and force the ships to return to Britain. This didn't work, so they moved onto their next plan: <u>The Boston Tea Party.</u> On December 10, 1773, a group known as the Sons of Liberty disguised themselves and boarded the ship. They threw thousands of pounds of British tea into the Boston Harbor.

The British found out and they were angry and shocked. They realized the colonies were out of control, so they passed the <u>Coercive/Intolerable Acts.</u> These:

  • Closed the Boston Harbor
  • Placed the colony under direct British control
  • Prevented trials of British officials from occurring in the colonies
  • Required British soldiers to be quartered at the colonists' expense

The correct answer is D. They closed the Boston Harbor and limited (but did not withdraw) the colony's right to govern itself. The colony had some power, but it was extremely limited.

In drama what is phantomine
Alecsey [184]
Pantomiming is the act of miming an object and using it. For example, if you're at an audition, and you see in the script you are supposed to talk on the phone, you would shape your hand as if you had a phone in it. It's like pretending the object is there and interacting with it.

I hope this Helps!
